Minecrafters grab your pickaxes, and catch up on the QBLR QUATERLY!

What's up guys, update just dropped! It sure is something to try and decipher, huh. We've got pages of new stuff to go over, so let me learn you a thing about all the events and mishaps that happened on the server this week!

This week, the news is late. Why is that?

Splat's solar system is complete! And what a beauty it is. And if you're wanting to see the real thing, there are plenty of potions that can give you enough levitation to reach Andromeda!

There are, of course, other potions to drink if fizzy lifting isn't your thing. And if you're on the violent side of things, Nightmarish and their friends have fun summoning dozens of skeletons! If you want a chiller time, Bibi has learned how to ride a camel.

Residents attend a normal dinner! And Grunk has a fun day at dirt world. Swamp and Gummy have big news - Swamp is having Gummy's baby! Congrats! Group enigma solving at Pirate Cove sees all twelve ender eyes found.

Hivi breaks free of the Ender King's control after a long, long fight. A new mod allows residents to make plush mobs! And, of course, the End opens! Tonmy is the first through the end portal and Levi gets the final strike on the first dragon. Due to scheduling conflicts, there are more than one first dragon fights! The second sees Mando dealing the killing blow.

And with the End open and the dragon dead, residents begin exploring for loot and new blocks! Splat uses his elytra to take some aerial screenshots of his projects. Inc uses his elytra to go endbusting with Jelli and Levi. And Zephyrous uses her elytra to catch and ride a tardigrade.

Of course, the End is not without its issues, looking at you Penumbral Forest. Berry and Popcorn invent new problems in trying to collect every plush mob in the game. And Neon invents water skiing with elytra.

Using cages, every End mob has been collected and brought to the Overworld. Including the Enderophage, which is being used to inflict pregnancy on players at random.

Did I mention that End Cities got buffed? End cities got buffed. A lot. And a statue of Pewen gets added to the creature statue garden! Residents also meet Jeff, the villager at the end of the game.

And now, a reading from r/malelivingspaces: White sandstone floors. Wine concrete walls. Split level with no visible accessible ramp between levels. Three yellow windows in the entryway. Single bookshelf placed on the upper level. Torches scattered about willy-nilly to stave off darkness. Almos, staring regretfully at the room. Single furnace placed on the back wall. Split level ceiling to match the floor. This has been a reading from r/malelivingspaces.

Grace builds a rainbow bubble under the water. Glitch has a normal reaction to the salt wastes biome.

And this week ends with a picnic at a lovely pink pergola.

RAGHHH I need to ramble about the Red Dwarf universe/world building bc it's just so GOOD and it just makes me happy-

LIKE- I adore the world that's set up for us. With the idea of human beings taking to the stars and terrorforming and building civilisations on the planets/moons across the solar systems. I desperately want to know more about what life is like on each planet, like we've been told about Io as it's where Rimmer is from, and we've seen like little snippets here and there. We've seen the Ganymede Hotel (I think) in 'Stasis Leak'. I feel like the one we really know the most about is Mimas, at the very least from the books, as it's where Rimmer and Lister first meet. We learn that it's a bit of a party planet, that they have an extra weekday so that people can recover from all the drinking. We know that they're famous for their bladderfish and fine dining - as well as their brothels, etc.

I love this bit of the Better than Life book, because of how much world lore we get packed in just one section, like it honestly speaks for itself AGH-

BUT I WANT TO KNOW MOREEE!! Things like calendars/years on each of the planets. They rotate around the sun at different rates, so how does their calendar adapt to that? Do they have any unique holidays or celebrations? So many little questions-

I'd pay good money to watch a show set before the accident, looking at the different planets in more detail, which I know we might be getting with Rob Grants little project, which should be interesting-

And that the different companies that are set up, like Divadroid and Crapola Inc. (where Talkie Toaster is from), what company made the holograms? What are the biggest/most popular companies in the solar system? Little things like this, that are completely useless knowledge but I just wanna know 👏👏

Not to mention Space Corp as whole- I wanna know so much more about it, like who is in charge, how much control do they have over the universe, and more importantly who the hell wrote the Space Corp directives?? bc they are so goofy- 😭

There is so much more I could say honestly, but I'm so tired rn lmaoo

I think you may have forgotten “Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.”

I cited the fourth amendment word for word and also sourced it on the poll 💀

The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

Writing's not that easy, but Grammarly can help. This sentence is grammatically correct, but it's wordy and hard to read. It undermines the writer's message, and the word choice is bland. Grammarly's cutting-edge technology helps you craft compelling, understandable writing that makes an impact on your reader.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Alright, y'know how some fandoms give more creative names to ships? Such as Kai x Cole from Ninjago, in which the whole shipping community collectively decided would be called "Lava/Lavashipping" based on their traits unrelated to their names? I wanted to do that with sonic! What if sonic ship names were like that?

So I have decided to start a list of ship names I created for some pairs! I'm going to update it as I go. (If anyone actually sees this, which is unlikely, they're allowed to share their own ship name ideas, and be credited). So here (also, for obvious reasons, I'm not going to list any adult x kid or adult x teen ships, nor inc*st ships. This post is more focused on romantic pairings and possibilities, sorry) without further Ado, I'm gonna try listing some names in no particular order (many of them are stupid)

Sonic x Amy - DestinyShipping (based on the fact that Amy believes she was destined to meet sonic, as well on the fact that Amy heavily believes in destiny while sonic believes in creating your own destiny.)

Sonic x Knuckles - SolarEclipseShipping (based on the fact that they were intended to have opposite personalities, as well as the fact that sonics round belly is supposed to represent the sun and knuckles chest thing is supposed to represent the moon. So sun and moon together make a solar eclipse.)

Sonic x Shadow x Silver - TimelineShipping/TimeTravelShipping?? (Based on the fact that shadow is from the past, sonic is from the present and silver is from the future.)(name can be used for sonadow, shadilver and sonilver alone as well)

Amy x Metal Sonic the hedgehog - PinkMetalShipping/ShockingDestingShipping (first name is based on the fact that Amys fur is pink, and metal Sonic is made out of metal. Second ship name is based on the fact that Amy for the longest time believed she was destined to meet sonic, but perhaps it wasn't sonic who she was destined to meet, because she also met metal Sonic on the same place, so perhaps it was metal Sonic all along.) OR RosegoldShipping (SUGGESTED BY @oddogoblino ) because rose gold is a type of metal

Amy x Blaze - BlazingHammerShipping (I'm so sorry for giving such a basic name.. blaze has fire powers, Amy's signature weapon is a hammer. Together, they make a blazing hammer as their signature ship weapon) OR TarotFlameShipping (SUGGESTED BY @thefakehedgehogaroundhere) . Amy uses tarot cards and blaze has fire powers

Amy x Knuckles - AngerIssuesShipping?? JUST KIDDING um PikoPikoFistShipping?? (You can tell I'm bad at this. Amy has a piko piko hammer, knuckles's dominant weapon is his fist, I guess? In a physical sense, he is more than his fists but you get it) OR StrengthShipping (SUGGESTED BY @kernelbastard ) assumedly referring to both of their strength

Amy x Shadow - PromiseShipping (this is not my idea. I dunno where I got it. Refer to sonic adventure two near ending, Amy and shadow interaction and you'll understand why I chose this.)

Tails x Charmy x Cream x Cosmo - FlyHighShipping (because tails, Charmy and Cream fly. And because Cosmo is dea-)(name can be used for the possible monogamous pairings in this ship by themselves as well, such as tails x cream alone)

Tails x Kit - WaterWhipShipping (I swear I'll update this but basically tails's uh tails whip(??) and kit has water powers so y'know)

Blaze x Silver - StarCrossedShipping (how did they even meet?? They're from both different dimensions AND timelines. (I don't believe in "blaze got sent to her dimension after the events of sonic06 crap). Realistically they probably would've never met. But hey, perhaps they will beat all the odds and not care what is probable, or what will stop them. Anyway this ship name sucks I'm gonna change it some day layerjdjjs)

Sonic x Shadow - MoonlitShipping (SUGGESTED BY @oddogoblino ) because sonic is the moon that lights up shadows arch

Knuckles x Blaze - GuardianShipping (they are both guardians, knuckles guarding the master emerald and blaze guardian the sol emeralds)

Whisper x Shadow - SilentNightShipping (stolen from @sonicrarepairtournament hehe) Whisper is known to be silent and quiet, whereas Shadow could be associated with the Night due to his design and personality

Amy x Sticks - WildRoseShipping (I don't think I have to explain this one, Amys last name is literally Rose, sticks is the wild badger we know and love, together they make a wild rose.)

Anyway that's all I have for now. Gonna update later.

You can suggest ship names and pairings you want me to think of if you'd like!!

JunoCam Spots New Volcano on Active Io

A new volcano has been spotted on Jupiter’s moon Io, the most geologically active place in the Solar System. Analysis of the first close-up images of Io in over 25 years, captured by the JunoCam instrument on NASA’s Juno mission, reveal the emergence of a fresh volcano with multiple lava flows and volcanic deposits covering an area about 180 kilometres by 180 kilometres. The findings have been presented at the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) in Berlin this week.

The new volcano is located just south of Io’s equator. Although Io is covered with active volcanoes, images taken during NASA’s Galileo mission in 1997 did not see a volcano is in this particular region – just a featureless surface. 

“Our recent JunoCam images show many changes on Io, including this large, complicated volcanic feature that appears to have formed from nothing since 1997,” said Michael Ravine, Advanced Projects Manager at Malin Space Science Systems, Inc, which designed, developed and operates JunoCam for the NASA Juno Project.  

The eastern side of the volcano is stained a diffuse red from sulphur that has been vented by the volcano into space and fallen back onto Io’s surface. On the western side, two dark streams of lava have erupted, each running for about a hundred kilometres. At the farthest point of the flows, where the lava has pooled, the heat has caused the frozen material on the surface to vaporise, generating two overlapping grey circular deposits. 

The best JunoCam image of this feature, east of an existing volcano called Kanehekili, was taken on 3 February 2024 from a distance of 2,530 kilometres and at a scale of 1.7 kilometres per pixel. The images were captured the nightside of Io with the illumination coming only from Jupiter. 

This encounter was one of three recent flybys of Io in 2023 and 2024, during which JunoCam acquired around 20 close-up visible colour images. JunoCam observed a total of nine plumes associated with active volcanic features on the moon, as well as other changes, such as new lava flows and other surface deposits.

[ARTICLE] MAMAMOO Announce First-Ever U.S. Concerts: See the 9 Cities on Their Arena Tour

Tickets go on sale later this month for the stateside shows as part of the girl group's "MY CON" world tour.

Nine years into MAMAMOO‘s career as a leading, chart-topping K-pop girl group, the quartet has announced their first-ever tour dates for the United States.

As the next step in the act’s “MY CON” world tour that traveled across Asia in late 2022 and early 2023, Whee In, Solar, Moon Byul and Hwa Sa will visit nine arenas for their inaugural Stateside tour. The U.S. leg begins in New York on May 16 before wrapping in Los Angeles on June 4. Venue information wasn’t immediately available at press time beyond shows in arenas.

The tour dates will mark MAMAMOO’s live Stateside return as well. The group has not performed in the States since appearing at the 2019 KCON Los Angeles festival. The trek is presented by Mammoth Inc. and Sugar Monkey Live.

The new “MY CON” tour dates follow the group’s latest EP, Mic On, released in November of last year, which included the single “Illella” that peaked at No. 5 on Billboard‘s World Digital Song Sales chart. Beyond group activities, the members have remained active with their solo music and projects. Solar and Moon Byul even teamed up as a duo for MAMAMOO+ for 2022 single “Better” and have new music together coming out later this month.

Tickets go on sale on at 10 a.m. local time on March 29 via Ticketmaster. VIP tickets from Wonderwall will go on sale starting from next month. See the full U.S. tour dates below.

In the next fifteen years, NASA, China, and SpaceX will make the next great leap in space exploration by sending the first crewed missions to Mars. This presents many challenges, not the least of which is distance. Even when they are closest to each other in their orbits (aka. when Mars is in Opposition), Mars can still be up to 55 million km (34 million mi) from Earth. Using conventional propulsion (chemical rockets), a one-way transit can last six to nine months, which works out to a total mission time (including surface operations) of about three years. That’s a very long time for people to be in microgravity, not to mention exposed to solar and cosmic radiation. To address this, NASA is investigating advanced propulsion methods that will reduce transit times and hibernation technologies that will allow crews to sleep through most of their voyage. This year, the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program selected the Studying Torpor in Animals for Space-health in Humans (STASH) experiment, a new method for inducing torpor developed by Ryan Sprenger and colleagues at the California-based biotechnology firm Fauna Bio Inc. Today, there is a growing field in biotechnology where unique mammalian traits are being investigated and used to develop novel therapeutic agents. This includes the phenotype of hibernating mammals, which are currently being investigated for human health applications here on Earth. But as Ryan Sprenger and his team indicate in their proposal, these benefits also have applications for space exploration, which include mitigating the associated physical and mental health risks. And for long-duration missions to Mars and beyond, these risks are legion! Ongoing research aboard the International Space Station (ISS), such as NASA’s famous Twin Study, has shown how extended periods in microgravity can take a significant toll on human health. This includes muscle atrophy, bone density loss, and effects on organ function, eyesight, cardiovascular health, and the nervous system. Another major issue is the need for resupply, which can be accomplished in a matter of hours for the ISS but would take six to nine months where crewed missions to Mars are concerned. There’s also the prospect of spending months in a cramped spacecraft, which is bound to take a toll on the crew, and the problem of waste management along the way. Under these circumstances, NASA and other space agencies are considering placing crews in a state of hibernation for their journey. This would ensure that the crew arrives at Mars in a healthy state and is prepared for the months of surface operations that will follow. The essential feature, writes Spenger and his team, is “an energy-conserving state called torpor” that involves a deep reduction in metabolism. To this end, they have proposed an experiment called “Studying Torpor in Animals for Space-health in Humans” (STASH), a hibernation laboratory for use aboard the ISS. This unit is being developed in collaboration with the BioServe Space Technologies College of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Colorado Boulder to be integrated into the Space Automated Biological Laboratory (SABL). The experiment consists of two chambers that will house test rodents, maintaining temperatures as low as 4° C (39° F) to induce torpor. The system will have instruments that measure the animals’ metabolism in real-time by monitoring their oxygen consumption, body temperature, and heart rate. The short-term goals of the STASH include investigating hibernation science in a microgravity environment, which includes determining if hibernation provides the expected protection against bone and muscle loss. The medium-term goals include testing bioactive molecules that mimic the gene expressions of hibernation and evaluating methods of inducing synthetic torpor. The long-term goal, they write, is to develop applications for deep space missions: “[D]uring a crewed mission to Mars, human synthetic torpor could act as a relevant countermeasure that would change everything for space exploration, mitigating or eliminating every hazard included in NASA’s RIDGE acronym for the hazards of space travel: Space Radiation, Isolation and Confinement, Distance from Earth, Gravity Fields, and Hostile/Closed Environments.” As Sprenger and his colleagues noted, there is a critical gap in our understanding of hibernation and its potential applications for human spaceflight. Currently, the infrastructure needed to study torpor in space does not exist, and hibernation in microgravity has not yet been studied. In this respect, STASH will serve as a pathfinder, laying the groundwork for future studies that could lead to hibernation systems for deep space missions. With Phase I development funding secured through the NIAC program, the team is excited to take the first steps. As they summarized in their proposal: “Research performed using STASH will be an essential first step toward acquiring fundamental knowledge about the ability of hibernation to lessen the health risks of space. This knowledge will inform the development of both biomimetic drug countermeasures and the future infrastructure needed to support torpor-enabled human astronauts engaged in interplanetary missions. We feel that STASH is the epitome of the high-risk, high-reward projects for which NIAC was established.” Further Reading: NASA The post NASA 2024 NIAC Program Selects Deep-Space Hibernation Technology for Development appeared first on Universe Today.

Some Thoughts on Episode 14 (Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury)

(spoilers & long)

*”Game-changer” is a term that I feel is sometimes overused, but with the amount of revelations and developments in this one episode, I think it’s justified.

*The first major reveal occurs right away when Prospera explains to Miorine that her mother, Notrette, was the one who started the Quiet Zero project, and that the purpose of the project is to use the data storms that a Gundam (in particular, Aerial) can generate to create an information network that can hijack any Permet-based system, which in the setting of Ad Stella would include *a lot* of important things, such as telecommunications (which, given the vast distance of space, is even more important than it is in real life), and, as we’ll later see, other Gundams. Put simply, Aerial can hack the planet solar system.

*Miorine is rightfully concerned that her father’s been trying to play god. Prospera agrees, but explains that it's for the sake of a world without war. She further explains that she sent Suletta to school both to make her happy (which Miorine expresses skepticism about, because regardless of recent circumstances, she's still loyal to Suletta), and to optimize Aerial under non-lethal conditions; everything was going fine until the Plant Quetta attack and Delling getting incapacitated, but Prospera seems certain that Miorine will agree to take her father's place in the project.

*Prospera notably refers to Suletta as 'the child' at one point, which is yet another hint that she doesn't love Suletta as much as she claims.

*When mentioning Plant Quetta, Prospera is holding her non-prosthetic hand with her prosthetic one, and both tremble. It's a very subtle movement, and given how far away she was from Miorine at the time, I'm inclined to think it was not done to deceive the latter, but because Prospera was genuinely shaken by the events at Plant Quetta. That may seem hard to countenance given how efficiently Prospera killed the terrorists and urged Suletta into battle, but Witch from Mercury seems to be interested in genuine portrayals of trauma, and I don't think it's unreasonable to infer that Plant Quetta reminded Prospera all too well of the Vanadis incident. It’s a small, but humanizing, detail, and an interesting choice considering the awful things Prospera will confess to later.

This post has a wonderful compilation of how lighting is used to frame Prospera: from Suletta’s POV, she’s only been shown to be bathed in light, while to everyone else she is standing in shadow. This gets played with in this opening scene, as Prospera advances into the light, but with a notably shadowed face, while leaving Miorine half in light, half in darkness. This seems to deliberately contrast with that scene where Prospera coaxed Suletta into killing; while Suletta stepped forward with a smile, Miorine stays still, neither advancing nor running, with a suspicious expression.

*Given the events of this episode, I wonder if the opening credits will have some changes next time.

*After the opening, we proceed with some Spacian adults checking out Gund-Arm Inc.’s event booth, but then turning up their noses at the delicious goat’s milk offered to them (ingrates).

*Earth House in general is worried about Nika, both because of her injuries and what she’s hiding from them, with Chuatury in particular not even saying anything when Till tries to comfort her. Nika shares some of her backstory with Suletta: she is an Earthian orphan like Sophie and Norea, and was delighted to get a chance to go to school, and had bonded with Suletta over seeing her as a kindred spirit. Unfortunately, Nika does not disclose her affiliation with Dawn of Fold, and leaves to fix her problems by herself.

*I really wish Suletta would just punch No. 5 in the face, maybe *that* would make it clear that his advances are creepy and unwanted. Sophie answers my prayers by bonking him in the head with a Haro and leading Suletta away.

*I also wish No. 5 would just stick to talking to Norea, he’s a much more interesting and tolerable character when he does that. Norea chides him on how his life as a Gundam pilot will be a short one, and he makes a curious remark on how her eyes remind him of someone he used to know, and who died alone.

*It’s unclear if No. 5 means the eye color or the expression, and you generally shouldn’t put much stock in characters with similar eye colors being related, but the fact that this was specifically mentioned leads me to wonder if there’s some connection between the Enhanced People and Norea, possibly familial, or, if Peil can change eye color and it just refers to expression, perhaps the Elans were originally Dawn of Fold Gundam pilots, along with Sophie and Norea, who signed up with Peil in hopes of obviating the Gundam curse.

*”Mr. Elan isn’t gross…” Yes he is Suletta, Sophie may be a terrorist and a murderess, but she’s 110% correct on calling him that.

*Sophie announces that her stake in the duel will be that Suletta becomes her big sister for real, and even promises not to kill Nika if Suletta agrees. In different circumstances, I think it’s likely Suletta would have forfeited then and there, but she promised her bride she wouldn’t lose any duels; Sophie decides that means she needs to kill Miorine to see Suletta as she was during their last battle, and then runs off to prepare for the Rumble Ring, the battle royale event mentioned last episode.

*Secelia acts as announcer, and goes over the rules; they’e basically the same as a normal duel, except it’s a free-for-all and maybe Suletta’s not at risk for losing Holder status (it’s unclear, but it also doesn’t seem too relevant, so for now I wouldn’t worry about it). Lauda, Felsi, Sabina, Renee, Chuatury, No. 5, and Suletta, along with some unnamed students, are all participating. Due to Delling’s absence, Sarius is acting as witness in his stead.

*Most of the named characters are using the mobile suits we’ve either previously seen them fight with or know them to be associated with (i.e. Jeturk House using Dilanzas), with the exception of the Grassley duo, who instead deploy two of the CFP-010 Heindree, which continue the “knight” theme Grassley mobile suits seem to exhibit.

*Belmeria approaches Prospera to talk about something.

*As the Rumble Ring is underway, Chuatury attempts to shoot Sabina’s mobile suit, but her aim is thrown off when she suffers a flashback to Plant Quetta; I appreciate the show’s attempts at realistic portrayals of trauma, but I feel so bad for those going through it.

*Lauda attempts to engage Suletta and get revenge, but is interrupted when Sophie’s Lfrith Ur (the green one) breaks into the arena and smashes Lauda’s Dilanza’s face in. Norea shows up in Lfrith Thorn (the brown one), and everyone is momentarily shocked to see them. Notably, No. 5 also remarks on them being the terrorists from Plant Quetta despite very clearly not having been there, but perhaps the Peil CEOs informed him of the situation despite the media blackout (or it’s a minor continuity error, tomayto tomahto); then again, it wouldn’t be the first time the show’s shown something that seemed off, only to explain it later. [another poster pointed out that he was debriefed at the end of episode 12, so nvm]

*Meanwhile, Nika is trying to contact the front management company to confess everything, but is interrupted by Shaddiq’s lieutenant, Henao, and is presumably kidnapped after (this awaits confirmation in a later episode).

*Sophie unleashes a barrage that damages the outer walls, and it’s important to note that the lasers and sabers she and Norea are using are blue in color.

*Up until now, most beam or laser attacks we’ve seen have been green, and this was to indicate they were in low-energy, ‘safety’ mode; Norea and Sophie of course have no interest in school restrictions, and are more than happy to give most of the students their first experience with actually lethal combat.

*Secelia recovers from her shock as Rouji informs her that the front management company is not responding, and urges everyone to evacuate; her warning is unfortunately too late for one of the unnamed student pilots, who is killed by Norea on live broadcast.

*Sophie and Norea then raise their Permet scores to 3, and activate six EDM-GB Gundvölvas, which are apparently a type of unmanned Gundam mobile suit that can be used much as how Suletta uses Gund-bits, and all of them start attacking.

*As they fight, and their battle takes them into space, Suletta asks Sophie about her motives, to which Sophie responds that she’s willing to kill for the creature comforts and necessities that most of Asticassia’s students take for granted. Suletta attempts to rebuke her but…

…well, what *can* she say to that?

*Chuchu’s Demi-Trainer gets its arm blown off, and it looks like she’s about to go into an actual killing rage, and I worry for a moment that she’s either going to get herself killed or kill somebody she didn’t intend to; thankfully, *Felsi* of all people calls her back to her senses when she asks for help because Lauda is critically injured, and Chuatury goes to protect them from the Gundvölvas. We saw Chuatury denounce Dawn of Fold as terrorists last episode, and this action firmly draws a line between herself and someone like Norea; while both have violent tendencies and are vocally anti-Spacian, only Norea is willing to resort to acts of mass murder, whereas, when it really counts, Chuatury is willing to defend people she ostensibly hates. I also can’t help but wonder if Chuatury’s action here might open the door to the Jeturks in general, despite their antagonistic history, making a heel-face turn somewhere down the line; it remains to be seen of course, but it certainly doesn’t hurt.

*In another contrast, Norea and No. 5 clash; Norea tells him to either fight like a Gundam pilot (i.e. raise his Permet score) and risk death, or abandon his Gundam if he fears death, both of which he declines.

*Sarius, unable to escape and awaiting rescue, is instead kidnapped by his son’s lieutenants, Maisie and Ireesha, which is witnessed from a distance by No. 5.

*Sophie and Suletta continue to fight, with Sophie pressing Suletta about Aerial’s purpose; if she’s not intended as a weapon for killing, then why is she so heavily armed? This prompts Suletta to vocally wonder why her mother designed Aerial that way; this might seem a bit naive of Suletta, even taking mental conditioning into account, but bear in mind she did grow up as a rescue pilot who used those beams and lasers as tools to remove obstructions to help people, so despite the obvious use she’s been making of them against her opponents, Suletta does have reason to not see them first and foremost as weapons.

*Sophie reiterates her threat to kill Miorine and destroy Asticassia, causing Aerial to go to Permet score 6 (whether by Suletta’s desire or her own will is, likely intentionally, unclear). Ariel generates an energy sphere similar to the one she used in the Grassley House duel, and takes control of the Gundvölvas, as well as affecting Lfrith Ur, though not controlling it outright; regardless, all of these Gundams’ (and even Sophie’s) Permet lines turn purple instead of their usual red, while Aerial’s remain blue. Despite the danger, even coughing up blood, Sophie insists on approaching Aerial as she seems to finally ‘feel’ to Sophie how she did when they last fought.

*The scene is interwoven with a conversation between Belmeria and Prospera, with Belmeria asking how Suletta is unaffected by data storms, and where, exactly, Prospera’s older daughter, Ericht, currently is. 

*There’s been a popular fan theory that Ericht Samaya was somehow transformed into the Gundam Aerial, and Sophie’s dying vision and Prospera’s words confirm it to be true. Of course, as has previously been the case in this show, there are plenty of questions left unanswered, such as how exactly this happened, and why, and, of course, if Suletta is not Ericht, then who is she? Like yes, of course she’s Miorine’s groom, and that probably will be the ultimate answer to that question, but while that’s the destination, it doesn’t explain Suletta’s origin.

*Belmeria is *horrified*, but Prospera calmly tells her that Ericht has gained a new body, that this “is the future of GUND that [they’ve] been searching for”, and then smoothly transitions over to attempting to recruit Belmeria for the Quiet Zero project, explaining that Delling created it to rid the world of conflict. Belmeria notes there must be more to it than that, and Prospera simply responds that she wants “to rewrite the world…So that Eri can be happy”.

*This may age like milk, but despite Prospera seemingly being okay with her elder daughter’s fate, I have a difficult time seeing the woman she was at the time voluntarily Gundamize her daughter, unless it involved, say, an accident, or was an act of desperation to keep her alive in some form or another.

*Suletta opens Sophie’s cockpit to find the latter is dead. Norea appears to claim Sophie’s mobile suit and body, and sadly tells Suletta this is the fate of all Gundam pilots, shifting to an accusatory tone when noting that Suletta seems to be an exception.

*Martin has apparently reported Nika for terrorism, as the front company arrives seeking her arrest, and also telling Earth House they’ll be detained on suspicion of association.

*Suletta tries to rationalize what happened, with some assurance from Aerial, insisting that Sophie must have been mistaken, that she and Aerial protected her friends and the school, and repeats her family’s cursed motto.

*According to Merriam-Webster, cognitive dissonance can be defined as: “psychological conflict resulting from incongruous beliefs and attitudes held simultaneously”; I’m not a psychologist by any means, but that strained smile and those tears? Suletta is definitely suffering from this, and is barely holding herself together.

*So, to summarize: 

Asticassia has suffered a terrorist attack, with at least one student dead, and at least several wounded, on live broadcast, in a way that the Benerit Group cannot simply cover up.

President Lauda, CEO of Jeturk, has been critically injured, with no heir apparent, while President Sarius, CEO of Grassley and Acting President of the Benerit Group, has been kidnapped.

Nika has been accused of terrorism and also kidnapped, and the rest of Earth House has been detained on suspicion of association.

Between the attack by Gundams and the arrest of Earth House, Gund-Arm, Inc. is in serious jeopardy.

“Elan” (No. 5) and Shaddiq are doing just peachy.

Sophie is dead, and Norea is escorting her remains back to Earth.

Prospera is recuiting people for Quiet Zero, a project with absolutely terrifying implications.

Delling is still recovering from his injuries.

Miorine is almost certainly about to play a incredibly dangerous game by pretending to cooperate with Prospera while secretly working against her, plus her groom and her company are in dire need.

Suletta’s newfound little sister is dead, she has no idea that her Gundam really is her older sister, nor that she is enabling her mother in a terrible plan, and she’s on the verge of a breakdown trying to reconcile what her mother and Sophie have told her.

*Folks, it’s perfectly reasonable to be distressed by all this, so remember to take a deep breath, and maybe drink some water if you haven’t recently.

*Not only has the school setting been permanently impacted, I'm wondering if Asticassia will even remain open, at least for now; between chaos in Benerit's upper ranks, with only Shaddiq and the ladies of Peil as possible leaders at this point, and the casualties among the student body, I'd imagine a lot of parents are reconsidering their children's enrollment.

*Between Gund-Arm and Quiet Zero, the situation of Earth House, Suletta, and Miorine seems overwhelming, but I wonder if Miorine’s new allies in the Space Assembly League (the ones made back in episode 10) will step and offer assistance.

*In addition to being a game-changer, this episode was also a brutal cliffhanger, and it’s hard to say where everything is going next. From the next episode’s “Father and Child”, it seems likely to focus on either Miorine and Delling, Shaddiq and Sarius, Nika and Naji, or possibly some combination of the three, but we shall see.

The Review

The Nature of Magic by Rachel Griffin is described on Goodreads as Practical Magic meets Twister, is anyone really surprised I gave it a try? The story scratched a lot of itches for me; I’m a big fan of nature magic, and have been a Climate Action advocate in my personal and professional life… and as always, I’m trying to find the next Practical Magic (my absolute favourite witch-focused series by far). While The Nature of Magic is very much a YA novel, it contains some very creative and original magical lore that makes it a worthwhile read if you like witchy stories as much as I do.

Our protagonist is Clara, a 17-year-old student of the Eastern School of Solar Magic, an institution that teaches its students to use their nature magic to combat climate change and protect the non-magical inhabitants of the world, otherwise known as Shaders, from ecological disaster. In this world, witches are born on either a solstice or an equinox and their magic is strongest in the season of their birth. There are Spring witches, Summer witches, Autumn and Winter witches. Clara’s magic is somehow tied to all four seasons, making her an Everwitch; an extremely rare trait in which her magic morphs with the seasons making her powerful year-round. Clara’s teachers haven’t seen an Everwitch in their generation, in fact she is the first to be born in over 100 years and finds her powers isolating and overwhelming. The seasonally-focused nature of the magic was, for me, the most enjoyable aspect of the story; it really demonstrated a love of the different spokes of the Wheel of the Year and the beauty to be found within each.

"Winter is the truest of the seasons. It’s what remains after everything else is stripped away. The leaves fall. The colors fade. The branches get brittle. And if you can love the earth, understand it when all the beauty is gone and see it for what it is, that’s magic."

I love the way Griffin describes the magic in this story, it feels very natural and tied both to the character’s bodies and the world around them. While Clara’s magic is “special” in the only way a YA protagonist’s skills could be, I actually preferred how the regular seasonal witches magic was written: Springs are calm and project this vibe outwards, Summer’s magic is “a constant rush, strong and powerful,” Autumn’s magic “builds on an undercurrent of thankfulness and sorrow”, and Winters are very straightforward- “what you see is what you get” with them. Another interesting concept that Griffin developed was that witches gain their power from the sun, and can lose their magic permanently by depletion through severe overuse, or being in the path of totality during a solar eclipse. The novel utilises depletion by overuse to demonstrate the increasingly fragile global climate, as witches worldwide find it more and more difficult to manage the Earth’s severe weather and begin losing their magic and their lives as a result. Meanwhile, Clara has a more personal struggle as she grapples with the idea of stripping herself of her magic intentionally during an upcoming solar eclipse.

Typical of any YA protagonist, Clara is absolutely swimming in tropes. She is singled out as The Chosen One from chapter one, being the only known Everwitch and thus The Only Hope in managing the worsening climate crisis by harnessing the magic of every season. She’s Not Like Everyone Else. Her magic is tied to her emotions, and seeks out those closest to her, resulting in the deaths of numerous loved ones including her parents and more recently, her girlfriend Nikki. Clara struggles with the responsibility forced upon her; her powers are overwhelming and she lashes out at anyone who forces her to use them (which is fair, as only one adult in the story seems to have any sense or consideration for her trauma at all). This all comes to a head when Sang Park, a Korean AP Botany student, is brought in to help train her. And he’s super cute.

"We’ve tried to adapt and handle the shifting atmosphere on our own, but we can’t keep up; it’s as if we’re blowing our candles when the whole house is on fire."

What would a YA novel be without a romance subplot? Thankfully, Sang is a lovely counterbalance to Clara’s sometimes overwrought teen angst, bringing his Spring magic and plant-whispering skills to the school and, with some difficulty, into Clara’s life. He is initially brought in to train Clara in the use of her magic, however these lessons tend to blend together in a “one step forward, two steps back” series of events which slow the pace of the book somewhat. Later on, there are some lovely scenes of communication between the two through the plants he grows (a kind of melancholy Floriography that I found lovely.)

As I mentioned earlier, the pacing of the book could have been improved with a shortening of some sequences, but overall, I really enjoyed the story. Some readers may think the climate change message a little too on the nose, “-no one wants to hear they’re part of the problem- that they are the problem now”, but I think a message like this needs to be on the nose at this point.

Finally, before I wrap up, I want to give a shoutout to a few additional points that I enjoyed: Clara is a good example of bisexual representation (yay!), Nox the cat is super cute (what would a witchy story be without a cranky black kitty?), and the excerpts from the ficticious book A Season For Everything which open each chapter are a wonderful world-building choice.

"I’ve had moments of despair and deep resentment. But then I stand outside and touch the earth, feel the magic in my fingertips, and understand that this is how it’s meant to be. The sun and stars conspired for me, and I am filled with gratitude."

I asked Rachel Griffin whether she'd ever return to the universe, to which she replied, "I'd never say never, but I don't have any plans to return to that world at the moment. I would have to come up with the right idea, but if I did, I wouldn't be opposed to it!" I would consider this a standalone for now, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Griffin returns to this story sometime in the future, as there is plenty of potential for a deeper exploration of the magical lore she has created.
